Hi, my name is Metka, I’m an art historian and a maker of the O2 wooden collection.
I had been head of marketing for the major Slovenian bookstore chain for fifteen years. Then I moved with my family to the house in the hills near Ljubljana, the Slovenian capital. Walking in the woods there I realized I needed a change. I felt the need to make something beautiful with my hands and I realized I wanted to work with wood. It took me a lot of time and quite a bit of courage, but finally, I left my job and opened my own small business, making objects in wood.
Every piece I make is made with love and care, which you can feel when holding them in your hands. Each is a little bit different from the other, thus none of them are completely flawless. It is precisely these tiny deficiencies that prove that the products are all genuinely hand-made.
I hope O2 products will thrill you with their shape and balance, and bring the touch of wood, that I love so much, to your home.
